Tension and Trauma Release (TRE®)

Release deeply held patterns of tension and stress that hold you back physically, emotionally and spiritually

What is TRE®?

TRE® is a gentle yet powerful series of exercises designed to support the body in releasing deep patterns of stress, tension, and trauma. It works by safely activating the body’s natural tremor mechanism—a neurogenic vibration that helps discharge muscular tension and bring the nervous system back to a state of balance, ease, and calm.

When we carry unresolved stress or trauma, the body can remain in a contracted state—stuck in fight, flight, or freeze. Over time, this can impact everything from our sleep to our sense of safety and connection. TRE offers a simple, body-led way to unwind these patterns, restoring a felt sense of groundedness, presence, and vitality.

What to expect in a session?

Each TRE session is tailored to your unique needs and pace. We begin with a brief check-in to understand what’s present for you and how your system is responding to life. From there, I’ll guide you step-by-step through a series of gentle movements designed to fatigue key muscle groups—particularly the psoas—allowing the body’s natural tremor response to emerge.

This shaking or vibrating is the body’s innate way of releasing stored tension and completing survival responses that may have been interrupted in the past.

At the end of the session, we’ll take time to integrate—reflecting on what emerged and exploring ways to support your ongoing regulation and embodiment. TRE can be a one-off session or part of a longer journey depending on your goals.

  • “ Renata is an absolutely incredible therapist. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough! She has the gift to make you feel so welcome, seen and heard the moment you meet her. She creates an incredibly safe space for you to drop in, go deep, and fully surrender to the process. I have had incredible insights and experienced a deep transformation during our sessions. “

  • “I'm so grateful for the guidance Renata has given me. For a long time I was looking for someone to help me move beyond the state of anxiety and shutdown that I was in. It wasn't until I worked with Renata guiding me, that I was able to tap into what was driving my nervous system dysregulation and constant reactiveness. I feel so much more grounded and peaceful since the somatic healing with Renata. I'd recommend her to anyone struggling with emotional overwhelm or who wants to grow and heal.”

  • “I felt so grateful for the TRE practice yesterday. I feel I take something new and fresh away into my sitting practice from it.

    Renata is a very good teacher, enriched I feel, by her commitment to her own personal work.“

  • “TRE was such a unique experience from which I am sure I will continue to benefit as I practice regularly. I certainly feel the best I have for quite a while and am so grateful for the way Renata led this simple but profound technique.”

  • “Renata is a gifted teacher and I like very much the way she tunes in to an individual's response and honour that, whilst giving back what might be a good offering for them as well.

    I can see that Renata has studied the dharma extensively and it is fab to be the recipient of this specialised knowledge. I love the space and authenticity in her teachings as well as inclusion of relevance to trauma and the unconscious as related to processing deep feelings. I also really enjoyed the class on The Inner Critic!

    It seems to me that she lives what she teaches. It is so wonderful to experience that. “
